Line Invaders

[Paoli_Steeze]

Should I get the 161's or 151 line invader's? I am 5'4''/5'5'' 100lbs.

 

[Calb3rt]

you should go bigger then that even

 

[Paoli_Steeze]

Do you mean even as in center-mount

 

[a_pla5tic_bag]

You can't (or at least shouldn't) not mount the invaders center.

 

[Paoli_Steeze]

My friend mounted his invaders at recomended mount for normal skis. (idiot)

 

[Calb3rt]

i mean dont go buying a ski you will grow out of in less then a season

 

[HamFaceGirl]

the invaders are 100% symetrical...... why would u not

 

[A-Style**]

161. im 5'10 and went 171

 

[i.ski.troll.]

you could deff be on 178s im 5'11" and im on 178s and there perfect

 

[PKalow]

I'd definitely say the 161's, I'm 5'7" and have the 171's and they don't feel too big at all. They're center mounted so they're not going to feel as long as they are.

 

[fragglemuffin]

you are dumb....invaders are SUPPOSED to be mounted center. To the creator, i would either get 161s or 171s...a bigger ski is almost always a good thing

 

[PaleCelery]

^^^ reading comprehension?

 

[fragglemuffin]

^^i reread....i am sorry for my mean words

 

[A-Style**]

ya but they were a step up from 157 and my first center mount so i wanted something i could control/handle

how fast do you go down the mountain? if you want them for a while longer go 171 and if you just take it slow and can afford new skis in a year or two then stick with 161. and how good of a skier are you, if your good then go 171, if just starting go 161

 

[DBeck]

161, 151 would be way short. And if you're worried about outgrowing them they're really like 164-165, invaders are measured after press so they're a bit longer than lets say a salomon 161. my 171 invaders were the exact same length as my 175 tnk's.

 

[BKlein]

Id say 151, 100 pounds is really light and 161 is going to have a harder flex than 151

 

[paulbunyan]

get 171 bigger is better. but a point where big is to big. youll like 171 thou

 

[pjbauer]

i would go 171 if i were you, and also make sure you get them center mounted!

 

[jason...]

I'm 5'4/120 lbs and ski 174 punx. If you think you can handle a bigger ski get 171's but otherwise get 161's. 151's are way way to short. I had them all last season when I was about 5 foot and 105, they felt to short.

 

[steeze2pleeze]

in your defense he used a double negative haha

 

[Howie07]

171's fo sho

 

[Snowgoner]

Deffinately 171's. As I learned a bigger ski is so much better for everything including rails and jumps.

 

[pmw]

LINES ARE BIGGER THEN YOU EXPECT. YOU 161

 

[A-Style**]

correct. my 171 anthems run about 174ish. get 161 dude. you're light, and that will make it hard to rock the 171s. and your height is fine for 161
